Hard to Satisfy

Jesus – so unlike what the world today perceives Him to be. Unpredictable, yet unchanging. Unhindered by the fear of what others would think – just told it like it was.
In John 5 verse 40 He said, “…you refuse to come to me to have life.” Why? What is it that we are afraid of? Is it what He may require of us? A.W. Tozer said, “He is not hard to please, but maybe hard to satisfy.” I believe He may be hard to satisfy because He wants so much more for us; much more than what we are willing to settle for. In Mark 8:34 – 38, He calls us to deny ourself to follow Him. Now that is a word we don’t hear very often in our culture. Yet He promises if WE will loose our life for His sake, we will find TRUE life.
Can we ask Him today what that looks like for us? What is He asking me to lay down in order that I can have MORE of Him? More of His best and more for His glory.
